IGN has offered up a list of everything that it knows about the 3DS. Much of it is stuff we already heard like a 3D screen that needs no glasses. However, the publication has talked to several developers who have stated that the device is more powerful than the Wii.

Some of these devs claim that the 3DS is close in power to the PS3 and Xbox 360, though those claims are hard to believe. The device is said to not be using the NVIDIA Tegra mobile chipset.
